Nietzsche's Philosophy of Religion (Hardcover, New)

In his first book, The Birth of Tragedy, Nietzsche observes that
Greek tragedy gathered people together as a community in the sight
of their gods, and argues that modernity can be rescued from
'nihilism' only through the revival of such a festival. This is
commonly thought to be a view which did not survive the termination
of Nietzsche's early Wagnerianism, but Julian Young argues, on the
basis of an examination of all of Nietzsche's published works, that
his religious communitarianism in fact persists through all his
writings. What follows, it is argued, is that the mature Nietzsche
is neither an 'atheist', an 'individualist', nor an 'immoralist':
he is a German philosopher belonging to a German tradition of
conservative communitarianism - though to claim him as a proto-Nazi
is radically mistaken. This important reassessment will be of
interest to all Nietzsche scholars and to a wide range of readers
in German philosophy.
